So assuming Hazred is not able to post now, I will post for him:
Atothis, realizing how close he is to the obelisk, jumps, flying over to the obelisk, and touches the two.
Nothing obvious, no surges of energy, seems to happen, but everything once trying to stop you, stop themselves, and leave the area. The landscape flattens, back to what it was before the trial. Then a larger, much more powerful being approaches, but this one means you no harm. Oketra had returned. "Well done, Naf crop. You are one of the few crops to ever complete this trial without any casualties." None of you feel like you can respond, for the awe of being in the presence of a god is almost overwhelming. Oketra lifts her hand towards you, and the air shimmers with a bright light around your necks, and your first cartouche appears.
You have finished the Trial of Solidarity. You may only have a few moments to rest. What do you do?
(Your cartouches give you a +2 bonus to attack rolls when an ally is within 5 feet of you)
Suddenly, your vision blurs, as if water is being poured over your head. As your vision clears, You find yourselves in a vast chamber that seems to be a labyrinth. The only difference though, is that the maze is not stone, but water. You realize you are standing on the water, and if you tough the walls, your hand stops at the edge, and does not go inside the walls. You cannot see through them either. Glyphs are spread across the walls.
You feel different, especially those of you who rely on weapons to fight. You feel weaker. You now cannot make strength or dexterity checks, or make a weapon attack roll.
Zonenchu wakes up with a start, is very confused for a moment and decides to tend to the main needs first. So he puts away the maul, opens his backpack, pulls out a ration.. wait, two rations and starts eating. He'll keep an eye on the others, just in case they start moving somewhere.
Ssra immediately upon arrival starts investigating the glyphs. Can he understand any of it?
Still immersed in the heat of battle, he is not entirely sure what he hit, but he hit it. All he knows is that it was pretty big.
Atothis' turn! You are now in range of the obelisk, and your fly is still active!

OK, thanks, edited. It is your turn!
OOC: Kan-ra's turn or Anputeleptuf's turn?

Whoops. Forgot that you aren't Atothis... heh... sorry to you and Hazred.
So. . .

Mesu leans against the obelisk, panting, and holding his hands above his head to recover from the run holding the giant arrow.
Ta-Kara, feeling basically no physical exhaustion from the fight, says: "Well friends, we did it, we passed the first trial."
"The hero sought to save the world.
"If I keep trying, I'll be able to win," the hero thought.
But the harder the hero fought, the further the world seemed to tumble away.
Drowning in doubt, the hero could not even save themselves.
Hero, if you still believe in a brighter future, hold in your heart a thorn that can pierce all doubt."

Zonenchu is EXHAUSTED.. just falls over and is fast asleep within half a minute of the battle calming down.
Ssra on the other hand is just shooting bolts of eldritch energy straight up in the air and is ready for a few more rounds right away.
{ OOC: Sorry this has been a bad week for me }
Atothis just kinda smirks and leans against the obelisk, seemingly uninterested in the celebration around him.
Ra-Kehet ritually dismisses his magic blade and returns the handle to his belt before kneeling in thanks before Oketra.
Kan-ra does a victory dance in midair. It lasts a while.
Anputeleptuf gazes balefully at Oketra until She leaves, then watches Kan-ra for a few seconds. He then shrugs and picks up Kan-ra's arrows.

Ssra, make an investigation check!
Ssra investigation: 7
Mesu: Curses at himself for not giving much attention to this trial as much as others, he reluctantly follows the others.
Ta-Kara: Steps up next to Ssra and inspects the glyphs as well, using the help on him.

You are not entirely sure what the glyphs mean, only that they're glyphs on a watery wall.
Kan-ra makes an Intelligence check. With -1. 0
And rolls a 0. "Maybe if we shoot the wall?"
Anputeptuf starts meditating. I knew Oketra couldn't be trusted.

Ssra rolls the advantage investigation roll from Ta-Kara helping him: 4
